Silver Sun Resource Corp. (“Silver Sun” or “the Company”) is pleased to
announce the Company has entered into an agreement in principle for the
exclusive mining rights to a near-term producing gold mine located
approximately 10 kilometers from the Company’s existing, wholly-owned,
Cherry Hill Gold Mine.

The mine is held by a private American Trust and consists of two
patented load claims. The agreement provides Silver Sun with the
exclusive underground mining rights for 20 years with a one time payment
of US $25,000 and a 10% Net Profits Interest on all production. The
Company has been granted two months to complete due diligence, which is
intended to include detailed sampling and if required, mini bulk
sampling. The private trust has held the property for approximately 60
years and historical assays provided to the Company from the mine (non
43-101 compliant) ranged from 1.6 to 18.0 oz/T. Initial grab samples
taken from the mine and run at the Company’s lab (not ISO or 43-101
compliant) confirmed similar grades.

“This is an important step for the Company as we plan on having
additional properties at various stages of development such that we can
ensure continued growth over the coming years. We have evaluated a
number of properties near Cherry Hill and this mine is the first that we
have targeted,” stated Mark McLeary, president and CEO of Silver Sun.
“We will apply all of the lessons learned from putting the Cherry Hill
mine into production towards the evaluation and, potentially, the
advancement towards production on this new property. As the mine is on
patented land permitting requirements may be much less intensive than it
was for Cherry Hill.”

Ian Foreman, P. Geo, is the Company’s Qualified Person as defined by
National Instrument 43-101, who is responsible for monitoring the
supervision and quality control of Silver Sun’s sampling programs and
who has reviewed and verified the technical information contained in
this news release.
